Lyrics
There'll never be no peace down here in Babylon
Till all my brothers here, down here are free
We no wanna be no beast down here in our neighbour's land
Now all we asking you, is to set us free
Then we can call you brother, brothers we will be
We can break bread together, the way Jah want us to be
We can drink milk and honey, no wine, we need this time
Then you can be my honey, your daddy won't mind
If you wanna be a priest down here in Babylon
Would you help to give us back our rights, our tribe?
Why can't your daughter fall in love with me, am I not a man?
Now all we asking you, is to set us free
Then we can call you brother, brothers we will be
We can break bread together, the way Jah want us to be
We can drink milk and honey, no wine, we need this time
Then you can be my honey, your daddy won't mind
Then we can call you brother, brothers we will be
We can break bread together, the way Jah want us to be
We can drink milk and honey, no wine, we need this time
Then you can be my honey, your daddy won't mind
If you wanna be a priest down here in Babylon
Would you help to give us back our rights, our tribe?
Why can't your daughter fall in love with me, am I not a man?
Now all we asking you, is to set us free
There'll never be no peace down here in Babylon
Till all my brothers here, down here are free
We no wanna be no beast down here in our neighbour's land
Now all we asking you, is to set us free
